The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks about the scientist who proposed the pulsation theory of ascent of sap. 2. **Identifying the Theory**: The pulsation theory explains the mechanism of how sap (water and minerals) ascends through the xylem tissue in plants. 3. **Recalling Key Information**: The theory suggests that electrical pulses created in living cells lead to the movement of sap through the xylem. 4. **Identifying the Scientist**: The scientist who proposed this theory is Jagdish Chandra Bose, often abbreviated as J.C. Bose. 5. **Historical Context**: This theory was proposed in the year 1927, highlighting the significance of electrical activity in the ascent of sap. 6. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the correct answer to the question is Jagdish Chandra Bose. **Final Answer**: The pulsation theory of ascent of sap was proposed by Jagdish Chandra Bose. ---
